Hi there I have a problem, trying to make php-clamav work.

But I keep getting the following error when I run the command:
This is the output after I run the make command:
I just can not work out what's wrong I have installed the relevant php-devel (since this would not run phpize if it hadn't).

I have the following versions of clamav:
Again I just am completely stuck any advice is much appreciated, it's probably something I have overlooked but just can't remember what I previously did before my OS upgrade.

Thank you ever so much in advance of any replies,
Jeremy

/wild guess
Is this is a locale thing? Try

LC_ALL=C make

and when/if it barfs, try
LC_ALL=C make
again

Instead of C, you could also try POSIX

At least it will throw some light on it.

Still throwing the same error again.

With no other output just exactly the same error

The line 55 of clamav.c contains this:
Still not sure as I would have thought it could have been the php-devel perhaps? But I have that installed does not make much sense really.

From the snippet above it looks like you're trying to compile from inside the php-5.4.0. What is the php version that is running on your box? And how did you install it?
If it's the latest 5.4.0 compiled from source, I guess this is the reason that you cannot compile the php-clamav extension, as perhaps php-5.4.0 uses some functions incompatible with php-clamav.

Also I see above, that libtool uses the php headers from /usr/include/php, so in fact you're compiling against the php (using php-devel) that came with your distro (you should name your distro too). That could be another reason that compile fails.

You best bet is to remove php-5.4.0, install/update the php/php-devel packages and then try again to compile the extension.

I thought I would clean this post up actually (was getting a bit muddled so I will apologise if someone was already reading this post of mine in response to what bathory said (with thanks too) and to business_kid).

The PHP version for the repo from webtatic is PHP 5.4.0 actually outputs as:

Though the version of PHP that comes with CentOS is 5.3.3, I tried installing a PHP module using the same php-dev package of course and that even worked (so can't be that).

One would have thought that it would be an annoying incompatibility between php 5.4.0 though if there's anything I have forgotten?

I would like to correct you on this though:
It's not the repo of CentOS it's the webtatic repo their all from and this still won't work. Must use the same directory to store them in ( with /usr/include/php).

I have attempted this but I get exactly the same output when I try this:
Though I even compiled another extension PHP left out for some reason and got that working using php-devel.

I did get this part right did not I? (see below):

Hi,

Out of curiosity, I've tried to build php-clamav in a test box running php-5.4.0 and it failed. Doing the same in another box running php-5.3.10 was successful, so the problem is the php version.
Maybe you should downgrade to Centos official php-5.3.3 (or get a newer 5.3.x from a third party repo)

Regards

Oh well that's good to know.

I thought it was just me makes perfect sense I was sure I was following what I'd done previously Imagick won't work either with PHP I might just go back to the previous 5.3 version like you just said.

Thanks ever so much bathory (I though I was going mad lol).

Kind regards.

PS I will try and get back php 5.3 since I think its just running yum with webtatic on packages from php53 (or at least from what I can remember).

To get PHP 5.4.1 to work with ClamAV-0.97.4 and the php-clamav-0.15.6 extension:

Change line 55 in clamav.c of the php-clamav extension software

from
function_entry clamav_functions[] = {

to
zend_function_entry clamav_functions[] = {

Thanks again,
